Frequently Asked Questions:

What are the features of the thermal switch?The thermal switch automatically turns the fan on when the attic reaches 80 degrees
and shuts off when the temperatures reaches 65 degrees. It also prolongs the life of the motor.

Can this attic fan be installed on my flat roof?It is not recommended because a curb would need to be built for it.

Does this solar attic fan run at night?No, the fan will only run when there is direct sunlight.
If you would like the fan to also run throughout the night, consider the solar attic fan controller, which turns the solar attic fan into a hybrid fan that can also use house power as a backup source.

What is the typical installation cost for this attic fan?
Most installations will run about $125-$175.
Our fans can be installed by any roofer in about 1 hour.

I already have a ridge vent, will this fan be effective?
Yes, while static ridge vents are great at helping heat escape your home, active ventilation
such as our solar fans will pull air out of your attic giving you a full air exchange about every 8 minutes.

What is the noise factor?
They are whisper quiet. We installed one in our house and you can't tell its spinning, even when you're in the attic unless you are looking at it.

Customer Reviews

Noticeable difference in electric bill

Jkanef(Phoenix, AZ)6/11/2011 9:56 AM

I installed 2 of these fans last year and they have virtually paid for themselves already. Here in Arizona where the air conditioning is essential, keeping my attic cool has removed that initial 'blast' of hot air when my A/C kicks on. They also keep my A/C from running as much as it used to. My electric bill is down nearly $60/month from last year! Great investment so far!

Well constructed attic fan.

We installed this ourselves and it's been running now for a month. I can't attest to power savings yet as it hasn't been that hot, but the construction seems to be very solid and it is very quite.
